Albany, NY (PRWEB) October 11, 2010

Strategic-planning workshops designed specifically for small- to mid-sized Capital Region businesses are being held in Albany on October 26th and 27th for business owners looking to plan for growth and build momentum entering 2011.

Accounting firm Karp, Ackerman, Skabowski & Hogan CPAs is sponsoring hands-on workshops for owners, presidents and CEOs of privately-held businesses and non-profit organizations being conducted by The Alternative Board (TAB), a leading peer board and business coaching company.

Many business owners tell us that while the recession may have ended technically, business conditions are still challenging and their most critical need is a vision and plan for growing their companies,” says Al Bellenchia, President of The Alternative Board – NY Capita l. “To successfully emerge from the recession and current slow-growth environment forward-looking business leaders know that this is the time to re-engineer their companies for growth.”

At the workshops, attendees will experience a proven formula for strategic planning that can power their businesses in our new economic reality. Representatives from The Alternative Board will present their Strategic Business Leadership™ (SBL) system that offers a roadmap to revenue growth and a better bottom line for owners looking to lead their businesses forward.

“For small-to mid-size companies, strategic planning is vital to success, but many privately-owned business owners lack the access to planning tools designed specifically for them,” said David Ackerman, managing partner of Karp, Ackerman, Skabowski & Hogan. “TAB offers business decision makers proven tools and resources to help them succeed.”

Mr. Bellenchia added: “Using our SBL system, in conjunction with our peer boards, executive coaching, and other TAB tools and resources, business owners can:
Redefine their company and position it for growth;
Identify and capture new customers and sales – even in a fiercely competitive environment;
Accelerate forward momentum with the right mix of strategies, tactics and tools.”
